Real Madrid leaves door ajar for Mbappe - but massive effort needed

PSG striker Kylian Mbappe must make a public show of commitment to Real Madrid for any chance of an eventual move to Los Merengues.

Real president Florentino Perez and his board are still bristling over Mbappe's dramatic snub last summer.

Marca says Perez has little interest in trying again for the France star, having also been rejected by the striker as he was leaving AS Monaco for PSG.

The door is ajar, but Perez is insisting Mbappe would have to make a major effort both privately and publicly for any chance of him playing for Real in the future.

Indeed, Perez is already moving onto other striker targets as they prepare for the eventual phasing out of Karim Benzema.
